    • RE: Games you feel compelled to go back and replay?

      @Inustar said in Games you feel compelled to go back and replay?:

      Mass Effect. It's the only game I replay over and over again.
      It's like a fave book or movie, I just want to experience the characters and story over again.

      I WANT to play that whole series again but when I try I just can't. "THIS ISN'T THE REAL SHEPARD! THIS IS NOT WHAT HAPPENED! THIS IS ALL WRONG!" =D

    • RE: Favorite Video Game OST's

      Streets of Rage II (SEGA Genesis)- Full OST playlist It's just the best. Deal with it! 8)
      Deus Ex (PC) - Full OST playlist Awesome moody music.
      Super Hexagon - Courtesy, Otis, Focus (Live at BitSummit) Chipzel is definitely one of the best chiptune artists around at the moment. It's pure unadultured GameBoy sound btw.
      Comic Bakery (C64) - Theme "Galway is God" as they say Friends of Bos vs Woz should recognize this one! =)

    • RE: What is your favorite old school Sierra game?

      I played Leisure Suit Larry 6: Shape Up or Slip Out and Police Quest IV: Open Season back in the day and enjoyed them. But really LucasArts games were SO MUCH BETTER! =D

    • RE: Games That Don't Exist (but Really Should)

      An open RPG set in the Ridley Scott universe but not directly tied to any of the Alien or Blade Runner films. A customizable protagonist for sure. I'd play that. I also have high high hopes for Cyberpunk 2077.

    • RE: What are you doing with your Xbox One?

      My Xbox One has been mostly collecting dust since I bought it at release. I also got a PS4 at launch so I played all multi-platform games there. I've played a grand total of 3 games on the Xbox One. Forza Motorsport 5, Forza Horizon 3 and Forza Motorsport 6. And now with a new GPU in my PC and all future exclusives being on PC as well I won't be using it at all. If you can use the cross-buy stuff to play on both at the same time I'll probably lend it to a friend that likes Forza or something.

    • RE: Are you buying into VR this year?

      I will not buy into VR this year. I bought into VR in August of 2012 when I backed the initial Oculus Kickstarter. I also bought the DK2 and now I got my complimentary consumer Rift. It's really great. Just waiting for the Touch controllers now to get the full experience. Hopefully I'll have a new job by then so I can afford them. At the moment I'm mostly using it for racing games as I have a wheel. Wrestling a RUF Porsche around the ring in VR is amazing fun! =D

    • RE: Metroidvanias that aren't Metroid or Castlevania, which are your favourites?

      @FutureCorpse said in Metroidvanias that aren't Metroid or Castlevania, which are your favourites?:

      Wonderboy 3. The Dragons Trap. A Excellent Sega Master System game that not many have played. Still holds up well today. Instead of getting weapon upgrades you turn into different creatures with unique abilities to progress to new areas. I believe Sega are making an updated version for the PS4 & PC.

      Oh shoot you're right. Dragon's Trap is totally a Metroidvania. That game was great! And yeah someone is remaking it! Lizardcube is the dev and DotEmu is publishing!

    • RE: Games That You Bought A Console For

      I usually don't buy consoles due to any one specific game. Now I just buy them all. But I remember very vividly trying the Demo1 disc that came with the PlayStation at launch at a friends and it had a playable demo of Destruction Derby and a trailer for the original Tekken. The very next day I took all my savings and went to the store and bought a PlayStation, Tekken, Destruction Derby, extra controller and memory card. WORTH IT!
      Also I eventually bought the PS2 specifically to play Gran Turismo 4.

    • RE: Is Kratos Odin?

      Back in the roman era they compared the Germanic Odin with their Mercury (Roman version of Hermes). Týr was compared with Mars their god of war. But that is earlier than Norse mythology but they did mention pre-migration era. And there are theories that Thor was the god of indigenous Scandinavian farmers and that Odin was imported from elsewhere. Either southeastern Europe or Gaul. Which would fit with Kratos coming from elsewhere. It could be that not only the mythology but the history of the mythology is woven in with the story?

    • RE: EZA: Username list! Explain your username!

      Dreamed up AntiPhoton in physics class and thought it sounded "totally metal". Shortened to |[Anti]| for IRC character limit and later combined with Antevante which is what my parents called me as a kid (Ante for Anders + vante meaning mitten) into Antivanti and later shortened to vanti which practically became my IRL name as well for a long time.
